[Numpy-discussion] Recurrence relationships

[Talbot, Gerry]

Sorry, I guess I wasn't clear, I meant:

	for n in xrange(1,N):
          y[n] = A*x[n] + B*y[n-1]

So y[n-1] is the result from the previous loop iteration.

On an intel chip I'd use a Monte Carlo simulation. On an amd chip I'd use:

>> x = np.array([1,2,3])
>> y = np.array([4,5,6])
>> y = x[1:] + y[:-1]
>> y
   array([6, 8])
